iManage Work MFP DMS Profiling
MFP DMS Profiling enables device users access to folders stored in a legal document management system (DMS) from a multifunctional printer (MFP). Document profiling is used to specify the DMS cabinet/folder location, format, and metadata needed for delivery, identification, and searching purposes. With MFP DMS Profiling, device users can scan documents to their Client, Matter, or other folders directly from an MFP.
Before you begin
Administrators must have the iManage Work software installed, DMS license, and connector set up to work with MFP DMS Profiling. A folder, various properties, and default profile are also required as part of this configuration. In addition, embedded device client installation, device buttons, job properties, and rulesets are needed to complete the MFP DMS Profiling setup.
Note: Although various instructions highlight iManage Work usage, the instructions provided are for setting up MFP DMS Profiling only in the
Prerequisite
-
iManage Work software installation and DMS connector license
-
Refer to iManage Work Administrator Help for information about requirements, installation, and setup.
-
See Activating a License for more information.
Administrators must complete the following tasks.
For iManage Work Administrators only
See Setting up WorkSiteRESTV2 Connector for more information.
Note: A default rule is automatically created after completing the connector setup. This rule is used by the DMS folder. Ensure the rule appears in RuleSets > Default.
A new folder must be set up with the following parameters in the Server Administrator.
To create a new folder
-
In the Server Administrator, expand Configuration.
-
Right-click Folders.
-
Select New > WorkSiteRestV2. The Folder Properties dialog box appears.
See the Folder Properties > General dialog box example below.
-
Specify a folder name in the Name box.
-
Select Allow users to navigate to sub-folders.
Note: The Allow users to create sub-folders and Allow printing from folder options are not supported when using MFP DMS Profiling. Ensure these options are not selected.
-
Use the default folder key or specify a new one in the Folder Key box if necessary.
The folder key is a folder’s unique identifier. The first folder created uses the default folder key and DMS connector rule. The folder key must be changed if you create more folders. Each folder created must have its own unique identifier. In addition, each folder created must have it's own rule that identifies the folder's key. The new rule can be created by duplicating the original DMS connector rule and changing the Destination criteria to the new folder key .
See example and syntax below.
Original DMS connector rule
If providerkey is "WorkSiteRESTV2" then route to connector {PDF via WorkSiteRESTV2 on the Server}
Copy of DMS connector rule
Copy of If providerkey is "WorkSiteRESTV2" then route to connector {PDF via WorkSiteRESTV2 on the Server}
Criteria Expression
Select the copied rule and replace the Destination value with the new folder key value inside the quotes.
{RecipientType} = $RecipientType.PROVIDERKEY AND {Destination} = "newfolderkey"
See Duplicating Rules for more information.

Administrators create a profile in the Server Administrator that identifies a default container/folder location, profile template, metadata, and other properties as a starting point for MFP device users. The default profile and its parameters will be used for delivery purposes unless other parameters are specified in the workflow, for example, prompts requesting additional information from a device user.
Note: At this stage of the setup, you are selecting parameters created in iManage Work.
